Abstract/OtherAbstract:
3-Alkenylation or 3-alkylation of indole with propargylic alcohols could be efficiently controlled by the catalyst. In the presence of triflic acid, 3-alkenylation of indole occurred and 3,4-dihydrocyclopenta[b]indole skeleton was effectively constructed in moderate to excellent yields via a cascade process. In the presence of Cu(OTf)2, 3-alkylation of indole resulted in the formation of 3-propargylic indole which could be further converted into 2-iodo-1,4-dihydrocyclopenta[b]indoles in the presence of N-iodosuccinimide and boron trifluoride etherate. Possible mechanisms related to the 3-alkenylation or 3-alkylation of indole and their extension to the formation of 3,4-dihydrocyclopenta[b]indoles or 1,4-dihydrocyclopenta[b]indoles were postulated and discussed.
